It's been a while since classes at Furin High School started and everyone knew what everyone else was like. Although Sugishita was quiet, aggressive, and only loyal to the leader of the Bofurin gang, Unemiya, he also had feelings beyond anger.

When Sugishita wasn't sleeping in the classroom or fighting with Sakura, he would watch you for hours, as if he was trying to talk using her mind with you.

One day in the afternoon, Sugishita took you away from the others and cornered you against the wall with both arms on either side of your head. His eyes were fixed on you, but it took him a little while to speak.

"I want to tell you something..."

Sugishita spoke in a low tone, almost like a growl, although he wasn't upset, but his heart was beating like crazy for you.
